Hey guys how you been ? Hope you rockin it ;-)
Its been requested to make post on Command prompt commands , usage and other tricks. So i'll cover this part in parts .
Anyway if you want to know how to get IP then i have already posted on that , here is the link

>>Get IP of remote PC

Basic commands

• dir : it lists all the files and directory in current location
• cd : it takes the control to specified path. eg- suppose you are at c:\> and you type command cd users\public then it'll take you to c:\Users\Public>
• cd.. : it takes you one directory back
• systeminfo : it gives you all the information like processor,speed,hotfixes,RAM,hard-disk etc
• md  : it makes a folder of a name which u have to specify. eg md hello
• color : sets the color of command prompt and its text
• echo : it displays the message 
• echo message >> name.txt : it saves the message you have written to a file ,in this case , name.txt. 

SHUTDOWN

you can use command shutdown with various parameter . eg >>shutdown /s

• /l : it loggs you off
• /s : it shutdowns the computer
• /r : restarts the computer
• /a : it aborts the shutdown. suppose you have used shutdown /s . it'll shutdown the computer in less then a minute and within that minute if you use shutdown /a then the shutdown process will be aborted
• /p : turn offs the computer without any delay
• /h : it hibernates the computer 
• /s /c message : this combination shutdowns the computer with a message which you have to specify
• /m : it is used to shutdown a remote computer but for that you have to know the login ID and Password of remote computer :-)

SPECAIL COMMANDS

THERE ARE TWO COMMANDS WHICH ARE HELPFUL IN EVERY SITUATION

• HELP : THIS DISPLAYS ALL THE COMMANDS YOU CAN USE
• command /? : this is used to get the information about the specified command . suppose you want to know about md then you have to type md /?  and it'll display the information about that command.

These are very basic commands remember these . In next post i'll start batch file programming.  batch files are really interesting :-)
